A small-molecule inhibitor of T. gondii motility induces the posttranslational modification of myosin light chain-1 and inhibits myosin motor activity [PDF]
, 2010 Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular parasite that enters cells by a process of active penetration. Host cell penetration and parasite motility are driven by a myosin motor complex consisting of four known proteins: TgMyoA, an unconventional ...

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2000 The invasion of the erythrocyte by Plasmodium falciparum depends on the ability of the merozoite to move through the membrane invagination. This ability is probably mediated by actin dependent motors.

Breaking the clip for cargo unloading from motor proteins: mechanism and significance
Microbial Cell, 2022 The mitochondrion is an essential organelle involved in ATP generation, lipid metabolism, regulation of calci- um ions, etc. Therefore, it should be inherited properly by newly generated cells.

Fluorescent probes of the orientation of myosin regulatory light chains in relaxed, rigor, and contracting muscle. [PDF]
, 1996 The orientation of the light-chain region of myosin heads in relaxed, rigor, and isometrically contracting fibers from rabbit psoas muscle was studied by fluorescence polarization. Cysteine 108 of chicken gizzard myosin regulatory light chain (cgRLC) was

Single molecule mechanics resolves the earliest events in force generation by cardiac myosin
eLife, 2019 Key steps of cardiac mechanochemistry, including the force-generating working stroke and the release of phosphate (Pi), occur rapidly after myosin-actin attachment.

Type-I myosins promote actin polymerization to drive membrane bending in endocytosis
eLife, 2019 Clathrin-mediated endocytosis in budding yeast requires the formation of a dynamic actin network that produces the force to invaginate the plasma membrane against the intracellular turgor pressure.
